The team behind this game is the most talented and dedicated group I could have ever hoped to create Sea of Stars with, and I’m again reminded of their brilliance as we progress with creating Sea of Stars’ upcoming DLC, Throes of the Watchmaker. For fans to have recognized our adventure in such an incredibly prosperous year for RPGs alongside new arrivals from the genre’s biggest franchises… we simply just cannot thank you enough for supporting us, and we can’t wait to show you what’s next for Sea of Stars.”

Original (8/30): Sea of Stars has only just come out, yet it seems to be doing quite well for itself. Reviews for the title have been favorable, and Sabotage Studio have just announced that the game has sold 100,000 copies across all platforms within one day of its release.

Sea of Stars is an indie turn-based RPG, inspired by many older JRPG classics such as Super Mario RPG, Illusion of Gaia, and Chrono Trigger. For being a relatively small production, reaching this milestone on the first day of release is something to be celebrated, with the developers having gone online to thank fans for their support of the game.

Sea of Stars review

System: Switch
Release date: August 29, 2023
Developer: Sabotage Studio
Publisher: Sabotage Studio


Another successful Kickstarter project, Sea of Stars was fully funded only seven hours after being live on the platform. Canadian-based developer Sabotage Studio mapped out several stretch goals only to see them continuously blown away. Now with the release of this retro-inspired turn-based RPG, a nostalgic wind blows for older gamers that remember the golden age of SNES and SEGA Genesis titles – RPGs that Sea of Stars pays homage to in myriad ways. As a prequel to their previous game, The Messenger, Sea of Stars expands upon Sabotage Studio’s ability to tell a story, and this time they’ve taken a bit more of a lofty approach. Going from an action platformer to a storied RPG is quite a change, after all.

Sea of Stars launch trailer

Sea of Stars isn’t here just yet, but Sabotage Studio has already prepared a launch trailer for the game. The RPG hits Switch a week from today.

Learn more about it in the following overview:

Sea of Stars physical
